The shuttered and fenced 5,000-square-foot structure at the southwest corner of Main Street and Ken Pratt Boulevard — vacated in 2016 by Horizon Bank — is set to be transformed into a MedExpress Urgent Care facility.

Construction on the site is expected to start within the next few weeks, according to Kevin Nelson with Tebo Properties, which owns the land and will lease the property to MedExpress.

Nelson said during redevelopment of the property, the old bank building will be mostly demolished and rebuilt, he said.

"They will be keeping some of the base and walls, but that's about it," he said.

Construction is not expected to have significant impacts on traffic at the intersection. City data shows that on a given day, an average of more than 66,000 vehicles pass through the Main Street and Ken Pratt Boulevard intersection.

Ellen Dietrick, a spokeswoman with West Virginia-based MedExpress, said the new medical facility is expected to up and running by the fall.
